Whether you travel for business or pleasure, packing light is always important. The Micro Travel Charger CMT-60 makes charging easy when away from home. Sony Ericsson was the first company to plug chargers directly into the power socket, eliminating cords. The pocket size CMT-60 builds on the success and popularity of the CMT-10 but now if the plug doesn’t match the available socket you can charge the phone with two AA batteries. The protective cover gives the CMT-60 a sleek, stylish form which won’t look out of place in an executive briefcase, handbag or rucksack. Read the rest of this entry »

Infineon Technologies today unveiled handset chips equipped with its 65nm CMOS process technology and said that products with this new technology are expected to be market-ready towards the end of 2006.

The company said the chip puts more than 30 million transistors on a space of just 33mm2 and proves that Infineon is able to produce such major digital and analog circuitry in handsets as MCU/DSP cores, storage and analog/mixed-signal in 65nm technology to operate with high reliability. This space-saving technology was also used to manufacture high-frequency circuits for the first time, the company claimed.

“The data available today emphasizes the multifold strengths of our alliance strategy resulting in a leading position towards time-to-market, figure-of-merits, and manufacturing flexibility by pooling significant R&D resources and also exploiting a huge amount of intellectual capital,” said Hermann Eul, member of the Infineon Management Board and head of the Infineon Communication Solutions Business Group.

“Thanks to this technological breakthrough, we have proven that our strategy of innovative integration works and that the number of available functions will increase while the footprint decreases,” Eul added.

Infineon developed the technology in the 65/45nm research and development alliance ICIS consisting of IBM, Chartered Semiconductor Manufacturing, Infineon and Samsung Electronics. The mobile communications chip developed by Infineon was produced in the frame of a manufacturing agreement with Chartered in Singapore.

Dock-N-Talk Cellphone Docking Station is a device for people who only use their cellphone, but would like to keep the feeling of a home phone when not on the go.

It works by letting you use a regular phone to talk on your cellular service plan. All you do is setup the docking station somewhere in your home or office where the mobile signal is clear and then connect your phone to the station by Bluetooth (or, failing that, a cord). After that you can dial your regular phones and the calls will be connected to your cellular network. Your mobile phone gets charged while it is connected to the station, so whenever you want to head out you can just grab it and go. It means bigger phones and better reception in your house without having to pay for a landline.

The Dock-N-Talk is available for $139.99.

When Motorola teamed with Oakley to produce its awkward-looking mobile-music-shades, which attempted to merge the mobile phone with sunglasses, it forgot one crucial component - the display. Now Korean start-up Kowon Technology aims to rectify that with its new product, the niftily-titled MSP-209 “Video Glasses”.
The Video Glasses contain a pair of LCD screens that are roughly the size of a human pupil (4.2mm x by 4.8mm), but give the effect, apparently, of watching a 32″ TV from two metres away. Kowon aims to capitalize on the surge in mobile TV phones by letting users plug the video glasses into their DMB-equipped phones.

Wearing the glasses all the time would mean your only respite from TV would be when you blink. Whilst coach potatoes across the world would surely rejoice at this, the rest of us might balk at the thought of taking the next step towards Borg-dom. We’re already welded to our mobile phone technology, carrying them with us wherever go. Permanently wearing video glasses that are plugged into our mobiles means we’d be sleepwalking our way into the Borg collective (or at least the nerd hall of shame)!
